2017 Ram Power Wagon Heading to Dealers Late 2016
Pricing for the 2017 Ram Power Wagon has been announced.
The American automaker is calling it the “most capable off-road truck in America,” and it will head to dealers in the U.S. late 2016 with a starting price of $53,015 including destination. Based on the Ram 2500, the 2017 Ram Power Wagon gets a new look inside and out, highlighted by new grille and tailgate designs complemented by black accents.

Powered by a 6.4-liter HEMI V8 engine boasting 410 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque, the 2017 Ram Power Wagon also features a 12,000-pound Warn winch, Bilstein mono-tube shocks, five-link rear coil spring suspension, Smart Bar electronic disconnecting sway bar, electric locking front and rear differentials, 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires, complete under-chassis armor and tow hooks.
Its off-road capabilities are highlighted by 14.3-inch ground clearance, 26 inches of wheel travel and 30 inches of water fording.
